…A lot of offensive words are omitted here…

Proposal:

– $phpmailer->setFrom( $from_email, $from_name, false );

+ $phpmailer->setFrom( $from_email, $from_name, defined(‘WP_PHPMAILER_SENDER’) && WP_PHPMAILER_SENDER );

Expected result: of course, as it MUST be anytime, NO immediate effects. When anybody places define(‘WP_PHPMAILER_SENDER’, true) into its wp-config.php, it will have default behavior of PHPMailer instead of current “We know best choice for you; you must accept this choice!” from WP.
